I was laid off in May, and per Danish law, as an employee of over nine years, I have a six-month notice period. I’ve been relieved of my duties, but I am still officially an employee until the end of November.

Emphasis mine. Seems like he doesn’t have to keep working, in his case.

what are you, a cop?

i reckon we won’t have a solid consensus about when we first had AGI until at least a decade after it happens. maybe we already do (though i doubt it). How it shakes out on a societal level is hard to say, but so long as the utility functions are being written, explicitly or implicitly, by capitalists, i don’t think it’ll go well.
